The next day, before the break of dawn, many of the officials were gathered, wining and dining as they waited for dawn.

"You may all leave, the Emperor is not coming today." A crisp voice rang out throughout the hall. Then, a figure in palace robes came through the door.

"The Emperor is not coming?"

"How does Eunuch Wei know about this?"

All of the officials were stunned by what Eunuch Wei just announced.

Ever since he took the throne, Emperor Lin Mubai had rarely been absent from court. This caused all the officials to wonder if something major had happened.

"I have no idea." Eunuch Wei shook his head, but showed no intention to leave.

"Eunuch Wei is the Emperor’s personal aide. Even if you do not know what happened, you should know where the Emperor is currently right? Could you enlighten us?" One of the officials asked when he saw Eunuch Wei stay.
